Shrek
Easily Passes $125 Million Mark(June 3, 2001 - by digitalmediafx.com) On Friday,
Shrek easily blew by the $125 million mark as it
continues to perform very strong at the Box Office. With
two weeks left before it faces competition from Disney's
Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Paramount Pictures
Tomb Raider, Shrek looks to be easily headed towards
the $200 million mark. Some analysts are predicting that
it will give The Lion King a run for its money
as the highest grossing animated movie of all time (not
calculating for inflation).

On
Friday, the number of theaters Shrek was playing
in expanded from 3,623 to 3,661 (record numbers for an
animated film). Shrek made $6.7 million on Friday
to bring its total to $126.9 million in just 15 days.
